Acting as if QB doesn't matter is absurd. That's the first game this season Tee Higgins has reached 100 receiving yards BTW. He's been averaging 40ish yards a game with the QB's he had been playing with.

I didnt say it didnt but having those two are a big help for Flacco

Almost 41 year old Joe Flacco, in 3 games with the Bengals (and without any offseason program with them) has thrown for 1,035 yards and 9 TDs

Bryce Young, the #1 pick in the draft 3 years ago, in 8 games this year has thrown for 1,390 yards and 11 TDs

And the Bengals lose again and the Panthers win… go figure.

He didn't have a great game for sure, he didn't do anything in this game to convince me that he's the QB of the future besides being part of the victory today.

11/20  for 102 passing yards 0 TD, 1 INT, and  a fumble recovered by Chubba.

Bryce should be donating half his check to Rico Dowdle. Been saving his bacon this year.

Everyone shooting their wad today saying “see, I told yall Bryce was elite” needs to read this post several times until it sinks in.

We won scoring 16 points, they lost scoring 42.

If we put up 42 points in a loss while looking like a real life NFL team, I’d have been more encouraged by that than winning with how we looked today.

Winning today helps our current place in the standings, but actually improving as a team (or particularly as an offense) would help our long term outlook as a franchise under Canales and Bryce.

I'd rather win like we did today - our D shutting down the 'best' team in the NFC on the road.

I think now that you’ve posted this for the millionth time it’s finally going to work. Dan’s going to give up future assets to get Jameis in here so we can lose games and Tet might get enough yards to get into the OROY conversation. Canales is going to resign because winning this way, given the roster, is to the long term detriment to the team.

 

and yes, I called him Tet. Tet McMillan. Tetty Tet Tet Tet.

Did we really shut them down though?

They had 369 yards of offense.  

That is 9 more yards than they average per game and 53 more than we give up per game this year.  

If a team gave up 369 yards per game on defense, they'd be the 7th worst defense in the league this year.

Yes, I will give our defense credit for having the 4th down stand near our goal line as well as creating the fumble that stopped their first drive, as they did rise to the occasion then, but even the INT was just a ridiculous play/throw and handed it to us and they also missed a FG.

We didn't force them into a single punt all game.  We had 1 sack on a QB who had 37 pass attempts.

They had drives of 56, 49, 50, 43, 58, and 71 yards (while we only had 2 over 40 yards ourselves).

We bent, a lot, but never really broke, partially due to the Packers own mistakes, that's a far cry from "shutting them down" in my opinion. 

Again, this is why I'm critical of us after a day like today, I'm able to look beyond a final score and evaluate how we played on the whole, and we keep squeaking out these wins despite not playing well at all.  And yes, that is what great teams do, but they also play well in the majority of their games, where as all we seem to do is squeak out ugly wins without ever playing all that well.

I'm not saying I'm unhappy that we won, I've never once said anything like that, but when week after week I see serious concerns with how we played, then I'm going to call out what I see.

    • Ehh, new front office has 2 drafts under their belt -- Salaun draft class was really a horrible class in general, but Salaun has started to show some of his potential and KJ Simpson not bad for a 2nd round pick. This past draft clearly looks like it was knocked out of the fuging park obviously with Kon but also Sion and Kalk already contributing in somewhat big roles for late round picks. And McNeeley has shown potential and lit it up in summer league, seems to be doing well in the G league for a young guy too.      As for this season I think a very realistic goal and outcome of the regular season is sneaking up into a 7 or 8 seed and then winning 1 of 2 play-in games to make the real playoffs. Probably get cooked in round 1 but that playoff experience and establishing that expectation of winning is critical to the development of our young core. 
    • Sound write-up MHS, as always.  Agree that the smart move that forward thinking franchises make would be drafting a tackle early, if not for sure in R1, depending on who's there. Based on early predictions we're choosing between Fano and Proctor. No brainer here...Fano all day. Proctor does not move the needle for me. In my mind, Icky has less future here than Brooks does. I love Icky, but he has been average as a top-10 pick, one good year where you saw the potential...and that was this year. He's built like a RT and his strengths are there, but he's always played left. I also feel like part of what has held him back from being elite, was his work ethic. He was known for it coming out, but feel like he fell right at home in Carolina and maybe didn't push himself as hard as he needed to. Throw in a major crucial injury that will take time to recover and a historical low return rate to current form, and the outlook is not great. Fano can play both sides and we need to also plan for Moton's departure. Either way, delaying drafting a tackle early this year will hurt us down the line. Our current OL is overpriced and needs to start adding draftees to start balancing out the inevitable changes coming in the next 2-3 years.  As others have said, maybe Icky can replace Hunt or Lewis in a couple years when he's fully recovered....IDK. Also not a guarantee, but then you have to figure out his contract and it becomes even more clouded.
    • It's past time to just eliminate it in terms of an event. Just do the voting, name the roster, and move on. When you get down to 6th and 7th alternates it's just absurd. It doesn't mean anything.
